General info :
While PlayStation 3, 4 and 5 games are not region-locked, PlayStation (1) and PlayStation 2 games are only playable on PlayStation 3 consoles from the same region.
The PlayStation 2 was the first PlayStation console to offer backwards compatibility for its predecessor's DualShock controller, as well as for its games.
PlayStation 3 games are not directly compatible with PlayStation 4.

PlayStation 4 games are not region-locked, so titles purchased in one region can be played on consoles in all regions, and players can sign-on to any PS4 console to access their entire digital game library.

Playstation 5 games are not region-locked, so games purchased in one region can be played on consoles in all regions. Playstation 5 offers backward compatibility with the majority of PlayStation 4 and PlayStation VR games.
PS5 is not backwards compatible with physical disc versions of PS2 and PS3 games, although it is backwards compatible with PS4 games.

PlayStation Now, or PS Now, works with the PS5. PlayStation Now is a cloud-based streaming service by PlayStation that allows you to pick and choose which games you want to play across multiple generations of PlayStation consoles. Think of it as Netflix, just with PlayStation games.
